how to meet women

[CanuckInUSA 0]

I've kind of sort of given up on whuffo women. They just want babies, houses that they picked out, the kind of guy who will go shopping with them on weekends and spend their spare time tending to the garden and they sure aren't interested in any of those crazy suicidal skydivers. So that limits me to skychicks and I'm pretty much low on the totem pole when it comes to the extremely limited supply of available skychicks being interested in a fart like me. So killing kittens is something that I must do and something that I must be contempt in doing. Sucks to be me ... but life is still worth living because ... well I enjoy playing in the skies so much.

Now if I could stop my canopy from trying to kill me when I take it terminal.

Try not to worry about the things you have no control over

this ain't a how to, but a how do i ? and no don't say at the dz... i go there to skydive and drink.....

In all seriousness, it's not where you go to meet them, but how you handle yourself when you do meet them. Surrounding yourself with women may increase your odds for one to start up a conversation with you, but it won't help if you're not confident.

My father told me years ago that the worse someone can do if you ask, is say "no". If you ask ten, one will say "yes". Start up a conversation and ask them out for coffee, or something that will give them a safe quick out if they feel they need it. Keep asking until someone says yes. Don't be afraid of beautiful women either. They're people too, and if you're confident, they will know it.

Be prepared to handle some rejection too... It hurts, but not as bad as not trying and being alone.

Sorry, but the movie section probably isn't going to work. Most young, single, attractive women go OUT on Friday or Saturday nights. If they're renting a movie, it's because they have someone with whom to snuggle up and watch it.

Hmmmm... not necessarily true. Lots of them are asking themselves the same question "how do I meet men" and that Friday or Saturday night they may have just decided that the bar scene or whatever scene isn't worth it and they'd rather watch a movie.

I think there's been some good advice in this thread so far ... put yourself in situations where you have an opportunity to meet people, but don't force it. There's nothing that's more likely to make dating seem like work.

Fixed the title-that's what it's really all about, isn't it?

I am not the man. But the man knows my name...and he's worried

Why does a girl have to be hot to consider having a relationship with her? If you will only date "hotties" then yeah, the selection may very well be limited. But if you are looking for a good woman, then "hotness" should not be the primary factor in determining who you date.

When I speak of hotties it doesn not limit to the PHYSICAL traits of a woman. I've said it a million times ( and I typed it on this website at least a few dozen times)

even a normal looking skydive chick is hotter than ANY Gorgeous whuffo. because the attitude is hot.
I lucked out and found a gorgeous skydive chick

Go for the girl who offers you a beer as you're landing at sunset.. or packs your parachute just to be nice. Those are the keepers. (And you should return those favors too.)
